The World Health Organization (WHO) has announced that many people in Afghanistan are living with diabetes without being aware of the warning signs of the disease.
In a post on its X account on Sunday, November 15, the organization said that excessive thirst, frequent urination, fatigue, blurred vision, and unexplained weight loss are among the key symptoms of diabetes.
The WHO stressed that these symptoms should not be ignored and that individuals experiencing them should visit healthcare facilities to have their health assessed.
The organization added that timely diagnosis and the start of treatment can save the lives of people living with diabetes.
Diabetes is a disease that, if not diagnosed and properly managed in time, can cause serious health complications.
